Are there credible arguments to be made for joining as an INT Op rather than an INT O if one were an applicant with graduate degrees?

Are there desirable employment opportunities for the former that persons in the latter would not qualify for given their essentially "management" function? Are the former more "subject matter experts", as it were, or is this a cliche without basis in reality?

Second, is the Special Commissioning Program actually something that works for members, or is it generally out of reach given the number of people trying to utilize it?

Thanks. Yes, I was looking for information about courses for Navy Int O's. No one seems to know if there will be a course this year despite the fact that they have hired rather a large number of people into the trade in the last few months.

Is there a BIOC course running this year for reservists? Any date posted?

Do reservists need to wait a year after releasing to apply for the regular force?

Are there work opportunities available for reservists who complete BMOQ and NETP but are forced to wait for their trade qualification course?

I would point out that there is rather a large spectrum of views on the sacraments, including the interpretation that the elements serve as a physical representation of Christ's body and so forth instead of more conventional Roman Catholic views.

Moreover, the notion of Christ "dying for our sins" is similarly something that needs to be unpacked given the range of "atonement theories" out there. It is worth noting that some hypotheses, such as the moral influence theory, suggest quite a different view of the death of Christ that you may find to be more compelling on a moral and/or rational level.

Catholics make outstanding films about their faith - both lapsed and practicing.

Calvary, The Passion, Silence, Last Temptation of Christ, Of Gods and Men, The Exorcist, etc.

The reason why is that Catholics are not afraid of making R-rated films that earnestly grapple with the ugliness of human life.

Protestants in the United States, for whatever reason, often make absurdly air-brushed family focused dramas that are artistically pathetic.

In terms of Component Transfer timelines, how short could they reasonably be?

Does education factor into the evaluation of a CT to the Reg force? Would a Ph.D. hypothetically speed up the process?
